The temperature dependences of the DC electrical conductivity of the DBA (TCNQ)2 single crystal measured along the crystallographic a, b, and c axes are reported. The crystal shows semicondueting behaviour and the room-temperature conductivities are highly anisotropic (σa = 3.63× 10^-4S/cm, σb = 2.84× 10^-6S/cm, and (σe = 1.82 × 10^-5S/cm). Particularly, a sharp semiconductor to semiconductor transition has been observed around 270 K on the resistivity curves measured under cooling and heating. In addition, thermal hysteresis phenomena on conductivity and differential scanning calorimetry curves are also reported.展开更多

The most striking difference between solid-liquid and liquid-liquid phase transfer equilibriums is that the length of alkyl chain shows a large effect on the latter but little on the former This means that the chain length affects only the hydrophobicity, rather than the lipophilicity.Keywords Quaternary ammonium salt, Phase transfer catalysis, Equilibrium constant, Hydrophobicity, Lipophilicity展开更多

A wide variety of catalysts with different quaternary groups and different quaternary chain length substituents were examined. The activity of single 搊nium?salts increases as a consequence of the association of ammonium and phosphonium salts grafted on the same polymeric support. The activity of polymer-supported ammonium and phosphonium salts increases with the number of carbon atoms contained in the alkyl radicals of the onium and of the functionalization degree with phosphonium groups.展开更多

The results showed that when exposed to visible light, coumarin dye/iodonium salt undergoes quick electron transfer from DEDC to DIHP and free radicals are produced. The visible light photoinduced reaction between DEDC and DIHP is mainly through the excited singlet state of DEDC and thus it is a little sensitive to O-2. The influence of concentration of DEDC, DIHP and MMA on the rate of photopolymerization of MMA was also investigated.展开更多
High level density functional theory (DFT) calculations are performed for the first time to answer the question whether the arginine-carboxylate salt bridge stays in a zwitterionic state or a neutral one. The results ...High level density functional theory (DFT) calculations are performed for the first time to answer the question whether the arginine-carboxylate salt bridge stays in a zwitterionic state or a neutral one. The results indicate that in the gas phase, the neutral form is more stable and hence proton transfer occurs from guanidinium to carboxylate. However, in an aqueous solution the zwitterionic form should be favored. The difference might he caused by the electrostatic interaction between the salt bridge and its molecular environment. Therefore, the solvation effect has to be considered in the modeling of proteins, whose stabilization depends heavily on the salt-bridges.展开更多

Since this reaction is a typical gas-solid reaction, the reaction rate is controlled by the heat transfer rate. In order to improve the low heat transfer rate of the ammoniation and the deammoniation of CaCl2, the influence of a heat transfer media (Ti: titanium) on the heat transfer rate of the solid ammoniated salt (CaCl2.mNH3) was studied and tested experimentally. The performance tests were carried out under the conditions of various weight ratios of Ti. No decrease of the activation of chemical reaction and no corrosion of experimental apparatus were observed on the repeated runs (≥30 times each). The heat transfer rate of ammoniated salt was greatly improved by adding Ti under the constant pressure (0.5 MPa). The reaction time required for the ammoniation of CaCl2 mixed with Ti was approximately 16% - 54% shorter than that of CaCl2 alone, and the reaction time required for the deammoniation was also approximately 19% - 59% shorter than that of CaCl2 alone.展开更多
